If the famed, award-winning wrestling journalist Greg Oliver is behind something, it's GOT to be good - and he worked with the rising Canadian comedy star Eric Johnston on the just-released book Run With The Bull: Three Generations Of Sports & Entertainment. So why is Eric Johnston on a wrestling nostalgia podcast? He's the link to a couple of classic grapplers: His grandfather was the famed '70s traveling heel Bull Johnson, and the son of Canadian star Danny "Bullwhip" Johnson.  Now, Eric Johnston has teamed with Greg Oliver for a book that's got it all: Comedy, nostalgia, pathos, heartfelt memories, great action photos, and a style unlike any other wrestling book you'll ever read. It's already a hit in Canada, and Johnston is on his way to being a major name in comedy and film. He's a multi-faceted man - and this is a multi-faceted podcast: The Outdated Wrestling Hour with former PWI editor Bob Smith. Even for this hit show, it's an episode that's totally unique!
